orenberg Russia January orenberg Russia January 25th 25th 25th 1825 quarterly Journal of the Royal 1825 quarterly Journal of the Royal 1825 quarterly Journal of the Royal Institute Institute Institute 18281 18281 18281 447 I now think of the disc of tarbus 447 I now think of the disc of tarbus 447 I now think of the disc of tarbus but when first I Came Upon these data I but when first I Came Upon these data I but when first I Came Upon these data I was impressed only with recurrences was impressed only with recurrences was impressed only with recurrences because the objects of orenberg were because the objects of orenberg were because the objects of orenberg were described as crystals of pyrites or described as crystals of pyrites or described as crystals of pyrites or sulfate of iron I had no notion of sulfate of iron I had no notion of sulfate of iron I had no notion of metallic objects that might have been metallic objects that might have been metallic objects that might have been shaped or molded by means other than shaped or molded by means other than shaped or molded by means other than crystallization until I came to argo's crystallization until I came to argo's crystallization until I came to argo's account of these account of these account of these occurrences occurrences occurrences Ires 11644 here the analysis gives 70% red 11644 here the analysis gives 70% red oxide of iron and sulfur and lost by oxide of iron and sulfur and lost by oxide of iron and sulfur and lost by ignition ignition ignition 5% it seems to me acceptable that iron 5% it seems to me acceptable that iron 5% it seems to me acceptable that iron with considerably less than 5% sulfur in with considerably less than 5% sulfur in with considerably less than 5% sulfur in it is not iron pyrites then little rusty it is not iron pyrites then little rusty it is not iron pyrites then little rusty iron objects shaped by some other means iron objects shaped by some other means iron objects shaped by some other means have fallen four months apart at the have fallen four months apart at the have fallen four months apart at the same place Mr arago expresses same place Mr arago expresses same place Mr arago expresses astonishment at this phenomenon of astonishment at this phenomenon of astonishment at this phenomenon of recurrence so familiar to recurrence so familiar to recurrence so familiar to us altogether I find opening before us us altogether I find opening before us us altogether I find opening before us vistas of heresies to which I for one vistas of heresies to which I for one vistas of heresies to which I for one must shut my eyes I've always been in

must shut my eyes I've always been in must shut my eyes I've always been in sympathy with the dogmatists and sympathy with the dogmatists and sympathy with the dogmatists and exclusionists that is plain in our exclusionists that is plain in our exclusionists that is plain in our opening opening opening lines that to be to seem to be is lines that to be to seem to be is lines that to be to seem to be is falsely and arbitrarily and dogmatically falsely and arbitrarily and dogmatically falsely and arbitrarily and dogmatically to exclude it is only the exclusionists to exclude it is only the exclusionists to exclude it is only the exclusionists who are good in the 19th century are who are good in the 19th century are who are good in the 19th century are evil in the 20th evil in the 20th evil in the 20th century constantly we feel a merging way century constantly we feel a merging way century constantly we feel a merging way into infinitude but that this book shall into infinitude but that this book shall into infinitude but that this book shall approximate to form or that our data approximate to form or that our data approximate to form or that our data shall approximate to organization or shall approximate to organization or shall approximate to organization or that we shall approximate to that we shall approximate to that we shall approximate to intelligibility we have to call intelligibility we have to call intelligibility we have to call ourselves back constantly from wandering ourselves back constantly from wandering ourselves back constantly from wandering off into off into off into infinitude the thing that we do however infinitude the thing that we do however infinitude the thing that we do however is to make our own outline is to make our own outline is to make our own outline or the difference between what we or the difference between what we or the difference between what we include and what we exclude include and what we exclude include and what we exclude vague the Crux here and the limit Beyond vague the Crux here and the limit Beyond vague the Crux here and the limit Beyond which we may not go very much is which we may not go very much is which we may not go very much is acceptance that there is a region that acceptance that there is a region that acceptance that there is a region that we call the super saraso sea not yet we call the super saraso sea not yet we call the super saraso sea not yet fully accepted but a provisional fully accepted but a provisional fully accepted but a provisional position that has received a great deal position that has received a great deal position that has received a great deal of support of support of support but is it a part of this Earth and does but is it a part of this Earth and does but is it a part of this Earth and does it revolve with and over this Earth or it revolve with and over this Earth or it revolve with and over this Earth or does it flatly overly this Earth not

does it flatly overly this Earth not does it flatly overly this Earth not revolving with and over this Earth that revolving with and over this Earth that revolving with and over this Earth that this Earth does not revolve and is not this Earth does not revolve and is not this Earth does not revolve and is not round or roundish at all but is round or roundish at all but is round or roundish at all but is continuous with the rest of its system continuous with the rest of its system continuous with the rest of its system so that if one could break away from the so that if one could break away from the so that if one could break away from the traditions of the traditions of the traditions of the geographers one might walk Walk and Walk geographers one might walk Walk and Walk geographers one might walk Walk and Walk and come to Mars and then find Mars and come to Mars and then find Mars and come to Mars and then find Mars continuous continuous with continuous continuous with continuous continuous with Jupiter I suppose someday such queries Jupiter I suppose someday such queries Jupiter I suppose someday such queries will sound absurd the thing will be so will sound absurd the thing will be so will sound absurd the thing will be so obvious because it is very difficult for obvious because it is very difficult for obvious because it is very difficult for me to conceive of little metallic me to conceive of little metallic me to conceive of little metallic objects hanging precisely over a small objects hanging precisely over a small objects hanging precisely over a small town in Russia for four months if town in Russia for four months if town in Russia for four months if revolving unattached with a revolving revolving unattached with a revolving revolving unattached with a revolving Earth it may be that something aimed at Earth it may be that something aimed at Earth it may be that something aimed at that town and then later took another that town and then later took another that town and then later took another shot these are speculations that seem to shot these are speculations that seem to shot these are speculations that seem to me to be evil relatively to these early me to be evil relatively to these early me to be evil relatively to these early years in the 20th years in the 20th years in the 20th century just now I accept that this century just now I accept that this century just now I accept that this Earth is not round of course that is Earth is not round of course that is Earth is not round of course that is very old-fashioned but roundish or at very old-fashioned but roundish or at very old-fashioned but roundish or at least that it has what is called form of least that it has what is called form of least that it has what is called form of its own and does revolve upon its axis its own and does revolve upon its axis its own and does revolve upon its axis and in an orbit around the sun I only
